The Registry

Update your name or address with the OBRA Registry promptly to stay compliant

Change of Address or Name

NC DHHS must be kept informed of any name or address changes.

There is no charge for changing your name or address on the registry. You may notify NC DHHS of a name or address change by submitting the Name and Address Change Form at https://ncnar.ncdhhs.gov/. Alternatively, you may call NC DHHS at 1-919-855-3969 to change your mailing address on the Medication Aide Registry. 

Note: If your name changes at any time after you are placed on the Medication Aide Registry, you must send written notification of this change to NC DHHS. If you change your name, you MUST provide official documentation along with your notification. 

Written documentation must include:

  • a copy of your signed social security card with the new name on it, and
  • a copy of a court issued marriage certificate, divorce decree, or other legal document that demonstrates the name change. 

Your notification must include your previous name, current name, mailing address, phone number, and the last four (4) digits of your Social Security number. All documents provided to the registry in support of your name change MUST be official and legal documents. Failure to inform the registry of an address or name change may jeopardize your listing status.
